Chapter 14.
Scene 1.
The new Jerusalem is invaded by representatives of Evangelists, Orthodox and Catholics. Three individuals stand out – Pope Pete II, Professor Pauli and Johanna.
Gratias agimus
deus meus
gloria, gloria
ave, ave
Domine!
Evangelists arriving,
the Catholics, their words,
and Orthodox from all the world.
With pride we bring the gospel
in hordes of mortal men –
the pride to crown Jerusalem.
Future gates will set us free.
Dawn will bring us hope.
Future gates will set us free.
Caesar, we believe in thee.
This day we enter congress,
oh lord we build our hearts
a vessel made to keep thy art.
The dreams that were forgotten,
the thousand lights of man
to minds from heaven shall ascend.
Gratias agimus
deus meus
gloria, gloria
ave, ave
Domine!
Together love has taught us –
if nothing life avails,
a heart of God can never fail.
We march through time with Jesus,
our days and nights dissolve
in light that soon will conquer all.
Future gates will set us free.
Dawn will bring us hope.
Future gates will set us free.
Caesar, we believe in thee.
Gratias agimus
Deus meus
gloria, gloria
ave, ave
Domine!
